My experience exactly, but I'd have kept it just for the free shipping. Only to find that free shipping doesn't apply to the beautiful Sandwich Islands! (or Alaska and Puerto Rico either)

I cancelled right quick!

I suppose they can't guarantee two-day delivery to those locations. Can you get Amazon's Free Super Saver Shipping there?

I buy a ton of stuff from Amazon, so Prime has been worth it to me. As far as their video service goes, it needs improvement. Netflix is way better. The selection is better and the interface to selecting a video is far and away better. I'd consider dropping Netflix in favor of Amazon, but only after they improve their interface and increase selection.
